It would be well for those who are dissatis fied with the Congressional plan of reconstruc tion, and are now placing it In danger by their desertion or denunciations, to let the world know aa Boon as possible w hat they would Substitute for it. A good many of thein Mr. Ewing, of Ohio, for one, in his recent letter explaining the Republican defeat in that State talk as if Congress was seeking to es tablish negro ascendaucy at the South, and had instituted npgro suffrage there for this purpose of malice aforethought. But it is well known that Congress only came to negro suf frage slowly and reluctantly, and after trying another plan, which actually left the govern ment of the Southern States In the hands of the whites. Tho prompt and cheerful accept ance of the constitutional amendment, though it did not in our opinion exact as much by any means as it ought to have done, would no doubt have satisiied the North sufficiently to have secured the admission of the Southern senators and representatives to their places. The amendment was, however, deliberately and ostentatiously rejected; not on the ground that the conditions that it contained were hard or unreasonable this even the Philadelphia Convention did not venture to maintain but on the ground that the South ought not to be required to submit to any conditions what ever. After this, Congress had two courses open to it. One was to readmit the South without any stipulation or concession what ever, except the acceptance of emancipation as an accomplished fact, leaving the negroes to be subjected to any regime short of re-enslavement that the whites pleased, and taking no security whatever against a repetition of the revolt against the United States Government. The other was to Introduce into the work of reconstruction some new element; since the disloyal portion of the Southern population would not do it, to appeal to the loyal. Now the first of these courses would, it is notorious, have only pleased a very small section of the Northern people. Only a very small minority, and that mainly composed of avowed secessionists, would have been satisfied to see the South return to its place in the Union as if nothing had happened. This is no supposition. It is as well ascertained as anything in politios can be. Most people called for conditions of some kind; and all acknowledged that if any conditions were allowable, those contained in the constitutional amendment were not unrea sonable, and were in fact aa little as could be asked. There then remained the admission of the negroes to the suffrage, at least for the purpose of electing constitutional conventions. Many people were willing to see the color test abolished, but wanted an educational test s in stituted for it. To this there were two objections: First, that an educational test, to be of any real value, and to be free of any indirect discrimi nation against color, had to be imposed not only on those on whom the suffrage had still to be bestowed, but on those already in possession of it. Ignorance is ignorance, whether the voter be a white or a black man. It was, however, admitted that to force the poor Southern whites to learn to read before voting again would be an outrage to which they would not submit. On this no party at the North was prepared to insist; not the Democrats, because they have always opposed the idea that popular intelligence was a politi cal necessity; and not the Republicans, because they, too, in forgetfulness of their earlier creed, were cheated by their anxiety to do the negro justice into proclaiming the suffrage to be the 'natural right" of every adult male. Some went further, and maintained even that anybody was competent to decide any question of government by the aid of "com mon sense." Mereover and by this consi deration the Republicans were perhaps more influenced than any other the imposition of an educational test at the present election that is, at the moment when negro votes were most noeded by the nation, would have ex cluded most of them, and have left the work of reconstrnction substantially where it stood. It was said, and with great justice, too, that by admitting all to vote, a pressure would be applied to the whites in favor of popular edu cation which could be applied in no other way; that in no other way could the negroes so well learn their duties as citizens, and in no other way could they so well force the local authori ties to do them justice. It may turn out that Congress, in adopting this latter course, made a mistake; but this does not yet appear, and until it does appear those who oppose it are bound to tell us what they would have done had they had their way. Legislation is not a puzzle intended for the exercise of the wits. It is a meam of affecting the lives and happiness of whole communities, and those who criticize it have a higher duty than that of finding fault; they are bound to tell their neighbors how to amend. It is all Tery well to rail against "negro ascendancy," but what ascendancy should be substituted for it ? Into whose hands, at the South, will you commit the task of reorganizing the Government, if not to a majority of the whole people f It is no doubt hard to shut out so many whites because they have taken part in the Rebellion; but if you do not like this, are yon prepared to let them shut out those who did not take part in it, but opposed it with all their might? It is no doubt hard to keep eo large a portion of the United States soil so long under military rule, but then what kind of rule would be set up if the mili tary were withdrawn? How would the elec tions, for instance, be conducted How large a proportion of the Southern population would ' Mijoy any protection for either life or property? Which is most injurious to free government the rule of an organized military force, acting nnder laws passed by a deliberative body, or the rule of the knife and revolver, the vigi lance committee and the mob? 1'hese are important questions, which every fair-minded man is bound to ask himself, and at least try to answer before he begins railing at Congress. Of the thousands who rail at it, iiowever, probably not one per cent, give them a moment's consideration. What they do is to put themselves through a grand hi,jh priori process, in which they arrange the facts to suit themselves, and make them appear some thing like , this:-"Ilre is a large, intelligent community of men of our own race, with an admirable system of law. who. thnLi. v have been in rebellion, have submittal itK i good grace to defeat. They have emancipated their slaves cheerfully at our reuusst. know the negro well, aud having been brought uii with him, of course feel kindly distosrt towards him, aud are anxious for hia welfare an 1 elevation. Being weak and ignorant, or course the Sheriff aud police and judges devote more care aud attention to his interests than they do to these of white wen, aud a to tlit whi inhabitant' generally, of ooursa thpy are kind and fair in their dealings with him, as they are deeply Interested in his prosperity. Vet Congress, animated by mere spite and malevolence, without the slightest necessity or provocation, has disfranchised a large body of the most intelligent whites, and by giving the suffrage to all the blacks has handed over to them the government of the entire South. We see the result in Virginia." We have made no attempt to extenuate the result tff the late elections in Virginia. We have our own opinion of the gentry who have there undertaken the task of "leading" the blacks, and have expressed it very freely. But that such pyople should get control of the blacks at the outset, and having got control of them should abuse it, was naturally to be ex pected. The liability of the freedmen to be misled by demagogues on their first entrance into political life is one of the unfortunate results of their having been so long degraded slaves; and the proper meilicine for this weak ness is, we take it, participation in the Govern ment. To regard the existence of the weak ness as a reason for not attempting to apply the remedy, is about as sensible as refusing to teach a man to swim owing to the certainty that at first he would probably flounder a good deal and get his head under water. Moreover, it must not be forgotten that the large negro majorities are due in the main to the intentional abstinence of the whites from voting. A phenomenon of the same kind is by no means unfamiliar at the North the refusal of the rich and well educated to vote or take any active interest in public affairs, through disgust or despair or love of ease. It has been and is constantly witnessed in this city, and with deplorable results. New York is governed by as ignorant a class and one more depraved than even the worst of the negroes; but the disgust and neglect of the rich and educated usually call down denunciation on them rather than on the class to which they leave the work of government. Moreover, if we once admit that the npgroes ought to be disfranchised wherever the whites choose to abstain from voting, we of course surrender the game. It being once established that if the whites do not vote the negroes are to blame, the whites will stop voting all over the South and leave us to do the rest for them. A more absurd f rinciple it would be impossible to introduce into politics. The true way, in my opinion, to make the whites take their proper part in the government of the South, is to show them that if they choose to sulk they will be ruled by the blacks. If they are once made sure of this, which as yet they are not, we venture to predict they will soon take an active part in elections. The Coming Man. From the N. Y. Tribune. The Democrats of this section have little knowledge of their probable candidate for next President, and will thank us for making him better known to them. His name is George II. Tendleton, and he lives at Cincinnati, Ohio. His father, Nathaniel G. Tendleton, was a scion of an eminent Virginia family, who migrated to Cincinnati some fifty years ago, practised law, and made a handsome fortune there, and was chosen to Congress as a Whig in 1840, beating the Hon. Robert T. Lytle, his Democratic competitor, by ten majority, if our memory serves. (Hamilton county was strongly Democratic in those days, but was carried that year for General Harrison on the Presidential vote, which followed the State election aforesaid.) Nathaniel G. Pendleton was an excellent though not a great man. His son George has rather more cultivation, ana pernaps more natural ability, though far from being a genius. But he is a thorough gentleman in manner and address; and it, outside of his politics, he ever did an unjust or unworthy act, we never heard of it. We think he will be the Democratic candi date for next President, for these reasons: I he party is now on its high horse, and not likely to stultify itself as it did when it ran a General on a peace platform. It believes it may consult its wishes rather than its fears in choosing its standard-bearer, and is not likely to be uudeoeived before making its national nominations. Now Mr. Pendleton embodies its ideas and its purposes as thoroughly and pal pably as Mr. Clay ever did those of the Whig party. A Whig by education, he is a Demo crat by conviction and by deliberate choice. In Congress, throughout the war, he never made a speech nor gave a vote that Robert 15. Lee or John bhdelf could object to. Never desiring disunion, he had early studied Cal houn and become a convert io his view of State Rights and Federal limitations, and he read the Constitution as giving the Federal authority no power to coerce or constrain a State. Holding the war on the part of the Union aggressive and unjust, he gave it no support, no countenance, whether by word or deed. And, detesting the national debt as representing the means whereby the Confederacy was overthrown, he is now open in his advocacy of its prompt extinction by printing off two thousand millions of fresh greenbacks and giving every holder of that debt the face of his bonds in currency, thus stopping the interest on the debt at once and justifying a reduction of all Federal imposts and taxes by one-half. 1 he country being thus flooded with greenbacks, payable in nothing and never, they could not help falling to ten cents in coin per dollar. Then, if two hundred and fifty millions could somehow be borrowed or otherwise raised, the debt might be got rid of at once, or it would be easy to wait till the discredited rags wore out, perished in conflagrations, or were otherwise destroyed. Thus they would ultimately vanish, like the old Continental money, not costing the Trea sury a cent. We consider this far more manly than the shame-faced, sneaking rascality of those who prate of paying in "legal-tender" and giving the public creditors as much as they paid for their bonds. We prefer Dick Tnrpin to Fagin. Mr. Pendleton is likely to bo the candidate, because the South and West are now a decided overmatch for the Fast, while the Democracy of the West is scarcely distinguishable in type from the conservatism of the South. We think the first choice of a majority of either branch of the party would be Robert E. Lee; but there are prejudices against him as a candidate, which would be less operative, less potent, in the case of Mr. Pendleton. We do not believe there is a conservative in all the South who would object to Mr. Pendleton; if there be one such, he must be very bigoted and exclusive. And no man who did not ao tually smell powder in the Rebel armies would arouse such enthusiasm in Kentucky, Maryland, aud every Southern State or ganized on their basis as George H. Pendleton. There are many bogus profes sors of Demooratlo orthodoxy, but his is the genuine article. His version of the Bible evi dently reads, "God made the white man in His own image;" his copy of the Declaration of Independence sets forth that "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all white men are created equal;" and "the lost cause" W0U.IA uot be really loot U lie were la ttw re sidential ohair. Yet he gva tho Virginia Bonrbons good advio when, on their restora tion to power by Johns, they had a chanoe to treat the blacks kindly, and threw it away. We venture the guess that no man treats his black servants better, as servants, than he dops. There is a silver lining to most clouds. If the elections of 18G7 had gone like those of 1866, we should probably have had some am biguous, half-and-half, Bhuflling candidate for President to oppose in 18G8; but the late results have cleared the atmosphere deoidedly. A square, clean Issue between the two parties will now Ihj made np; the sham Democracy will select a representative man; and for such it has none better in its ranks than George II. Pendleton. The Late Election Raat aud Vet-CSraut vs. ( hue, R-om (Aa IV. Y. Herald. Fast and West, in every State where it has been made the test, this unpalatable, imprac ticable and dangerous proposition of universal negro suffrage has resulted in a revolt in the Republican rauks, and in a formal notice to the radical managers of the Republican party that their reign has ended, that wiser leaders aud better counsels must take their places, that the conservative Union elements of the country are in motion for a new organization and a new departure for the Presidential election, and that General Grant is their man. Beginning with the October elections, we find that in Pennsylvania, where the Republi cans avoided this direct test of universal negro sull'rage, and avoided, too, any agitation of the Presidential claims of Mr. Chase, they lost the State, on a light vote, by less than a thousand majority. But on the same day in Ohio, and on the largest popular vote ever polled in the State, and where the claims of Mr. Chase as a Presidential candidate and universal negro suffrage were distinctly before the people, they lost the State Legislature, and thereby a radical United States Sanator "old Ben Wade" and had their negro suffrage amend ment to the State Constitution voted down by fifty thousand majority against it. This was a stunner from the same people who had re jected Vallandigham and his Copperhead here sies by one hundred thousand majority. But the leading organs of Mr. Chase, East and West, immediately put in the plea that he was not responsible for these results in Ohio, although personally .superintending the battle on the Republican side. It was ar ranged, accordingly, by his radical managers in New York, to give him a fair trial in our November election. They took the matter in hand at Syracuse, they set up their candidate in platform, including universal negro suf frage, and behold the result 1 It is astound ing, overwhelming, and beyond all question is decisive against Mr. Chase and his negro suf frage and financial policy and his pretensions as a Presidential candidate. It was every where understood that if the Republicans car ried this State it would be considered as tho voice of New York in favor of Mr. Chase, and it was generally believed that his success in New York would make sure his nomination for the Presidency by the Republican National Convention. It was even broadly hinted, in advance of the election, that the success of the Republican State ticket would be equivalent to the nomination of Chase and Fenton, and this is the scheme which has been so signally overthrown. Mr. Chase and his negro suf frage and financial platform are cast out, and the voice of the Knipire State inaugurates a reconstruction of the solid, genuine Union elements of the country under the standard of Weneial Urant. General Grant's Nomination, From the N. Y. Times. The late elections have made General Grant the Republican candidate for the Presidency. This is a result which we have foreseen and favored for the last two years. We have had no doubt, since the contest between the Presi dent and Congress grew sharp and bitter, that , the country would fall back upon General Grant to do what neither of the contending parties could do, restore the Union on a basis of justice, in a spirit of amity, and in accord ance with the principles of self-government, which are fundamental in our republio. Making war, and making peace when the war is over, are two different things. They require different means as they seek different ends. Fierce passion, the utmost fervor of party and sectional hatred, a desperate deter mination to trample the enemy in the dust these feelings and purposes re proper and necessary in waging war. War is a thing of passion, and the hotter and fiercer the temper in which it is carried on, the more vigorous and successful the war will be. But when the war ends, the passion which fed it must end also, or settled and lasting peace cannot be had. In a war of one nation against another this is less essential, because each can manage its own affairs without regard to the other. But after a civil war, when peace implies not only a cessation of hostilities between belligerents, but the renewal of a partnership, the exeroi.se of common powers, the enjoyment of common rights, and the pur suit of common ends between them, the resto ration of peace means something much broader and deeper in its relations. If the conqueror is to cherish still all the hatred and resent ment of the war, and seek the same ends of humiliation and subjugation only by different means, peace, in any genuine and hearty sense of the word, cannot be had. We may have silence, submission, subjection; but those in a republio are not peace. Party victories, won in heated contests, in volving sharp points of controversy and im posing harsh rule upon the weaker party, do not establish peace between them. The elec tion of Wendell Phillips to be President, with a Congress in sympathy with his views and feelings, would not give the country peace, though every State sbonld be brought back to the Union, every district represented, every office filled, aud every man, woman, and child silent and submissive to the law. And the tendency of events for the last two years has been towards such a contest and such a victory. The country wants a victory which the de feated party will not deem a degradation, and in which it will not see its ruin. General Grant's election as President will not be deemed, by any party or by any section, an insult or a humiliation; for all parties and all sections know that it is not in his temper or his nature to insult or humiliate any class or any community. He can reooncile conflicting feelings, soothe exasperated resentments, medi ate between contending parties, aud thus open the way to a reconciliation full of the spirit of peace, and involving all its highest and best re sults, better than any other man in the nation. And this not because he is an abler man, or a more experienced statesman, or a more de cided and active Republican, than Chief Justice Chase or anybody else but because the deeds and public services which commend him to the regard mi- l9Y9 of Un couutrymou, Lara, also held him aloof from the conflicts and hatreds alike of parties and sections bocause he is of a calm, self-controlling, equable tem per, wedded naturally and unconquerably to Instice and fair dealing and because all men ;now him to be a cealons, disinterested lover of his country and ol the principles of Its gov ernment. Nor do we share in the slightest degree the Tiihune't fears that he will saorifloe any of the principles of liberty, equal, Impartial, and universal, on which our institutions rest. Thoso who hope for the revival of the class distinctions of the past who look to the fresh degradation of the colored race, to the exclu sion from civil rights and political privileges of men for any other cause than lack of merit, will find no enoouragement aud no aid in General Grant. If the Tribune has any fear that General Grant will give countenance or toleration to any scheme which seeks either to "reduce the blacks again to vassalage or semi slavery," or to defraud the national creditors, we are confident it may at once dismiss them. Nothing in his history, his acts, or his declara tions gives the slightest warrant for any such apprehensions. General Grant's nomination, which we re gard 'as virtually made already, will consoli date and harmonize the Republican party, first by ending all personal strife, all contest and collision among aspirants for tho Presidency, and next by confining its action to the essen tial principles and policy which the welfare of the country requires. And his election will rut an end to the war of parties and of fac tions, by which peace has been repellod and the restoration of the Union disoouraged and delayed. An Enroptan Coagre Another Humor. H orn the A. Y. Herald. It is authoritatively stated in one of our late cable despatches that a "call for an Eu ropean congress will soon be issued by the French Government," alias Louis Napoleon. We 'do not much wonder at the rumor, nor shall we be at all surprised if some such pro posal is actually made by the Emperor to the other great powers. It is no secret, but a fact patent to the world, that a general congress is one of the primary objects on which for years past the Emperor's heart has been set. It is not at all improbable that a congress will be brought together; but, unless we greatly mis take the present character and condition of tho different European Governments, a congress is possible only on one condition. Its purpose must, first of all, be distinctly and definitely stated. That purpose must not be general, but particular. If Napoleon asks an European congress to aid him in answering the ques tion, What is best to do with Rome ? we see no reason why his request should not be complied with, nor do we think it at all unlikely that it will. Such a congress was got together for the purpose of settling the Luxembourg question. Such, however, is not the kind of congress which Napoleon wants. His object is to rearrange, according to a favorite plan of his own, the nationalities of Europe. He wishes to reconstruct the boun dary lines, and we have little doubt that if a congress would gratify Napoleon's ambition in certain directions, he would not be unwilling to abandon his protectorate of Rome. No oon gress, however, could do this but one which was convened for the most general and indefi nite purpose. Such a congress, we hesitate not to say, is in present circumstances impos sible. We are not unwilling, however, to be generous. If Napoleon submits to the decision of an European congress the final and unquali fied decision of the Roman question, he will give proof of a desire to do justice, and of a willingness to preserve the peace of the nation, for which we have not been able hitherto to give him credit.
